        <strong>UNDERSTANDING LOW MOOD</strong></p>

        When you feel depressed, it is very common that a large part of your thoughts are negative in nature. It can be hard to think of something positive, while thoughts of things that are bad or things that might get worse easily appear. There is a tendency to &quot;demonize&quot; situations and events, or what will happen in the future, almost all of the time. Do you recognize this? This is a result of feeling depressed, while it also constitutes one of the reasons for the persistent feeling of low mood. The low mood maintains the negative thought patterns, and the negative thoughts maintain the low mood. This means that there is no natural beginning and no natural end to the circle! It just goes round and round in the vicious circle of depression.

        The fact that there is no &quot;natural&quot; end or beginning of the circle makes it possible to break the circle at any place. In this case, the negative thoughts are easier to change than the negative emotions that we usually refer to when we say &quot;depression&quot;. It is easy to think that if only the negative feelings would cease, the negative thoughts would disappear automatically. This is probably true, but how would you control your emotions through your will? For purely practical reasons we therefore choose to go the other way around: By taking a step back and looking at your thoughts in a different way, the feelings will change as a result!
